3 Things I wish I knew before I became a Coach and started my Business (Part 3)
Apr 21, 2022 12:01 pm
Hello Lovely New Coach & Consultant,
How are you doing?
So I came into coaching after personally, going through a major Burnout episode.
It was a very difficult time, which was emotional and awful.
And 1 thing that I did during this time was to note and reward myself for each tiny step forward that I took to get overcome the fear, worries, doubt and lack of self-belief I felt.
I printed a calendar and wrote actions for me to do daily.
I ticked them off and I was compassionate with myself on the days, where strength did not seem forthcoming.
I didn't want to re-emerge and face the world again.
I wanted to stay hidden, to lament and be satisfied with the "rational lies" that were keeping me stuck.
Like........
"No-one will ever take me seriously again."
"They'll just think she's a failure and she doesn't know how to handle herself".
"Why would anyone ever trust what I have to say, clearly I make the wrong choices".
Or so I thought!
It's definitely a mistake not sense check your thoughts when you're in a state of unhappiness, depression and unable to think clearly.
Because one of the hardest things to do is to........
Ask for Help.
It's what you should do, because you do not have to go through your worst, days, weeks and months alone. You can ask for support. You can join support groups. You can seek professional advice. You can take a mixture of approaches that help you to heal and to move your mindset and your actions forward.
And you thought this was going to be about MONEY!
A word on Money........
Understanding the importance of money, and how you feel and think about it is of vital importance to your business:
If you're to be sustainable - you'll need to charge accordingly
If you're to have an impact - you'll need to charge accordingly
If you're to have the life you desire - you'll need to charge accordingly
